It's over. I didn't see Bernie but I thought Hillary had a tough night, she got *really* strange questions from left field. There was a crazy rabbi talking about what's in his pockets that ended up being a question about staying humble

But, she did extremely well with most of the questions she was given.

I'd say it was overall a good night for her.

The fact that in 2004 Hillary was against gay marriage and now she's all like "I'm down with the homos!!!!" is absolutely vile. 2004 is not that long ago either. It's not like it was 1964 where supporting gays was a no-no for everyone. She is two-faced. She'd literally sell her own daughter if it could make her President.

One of her released emails shows that she was working behind the scenes for marriage equality in Maryland in 2012, one year before she publicly came out for marriage equality. Since it was a private email, it is pretty convincing that she is actually for lgbt rights, rather than just speaking about it for a political advantage.

This is the equivalent of posting Bernie's logo superimposed with "Giving your **** to other people, because working is too hard."

Retro, how do you guys make those HQ avatars? Whenever I try to make one of a still image, it just gets blurry/Low quality when I try to put it on this site.

Hillary stans always talking about logic. Was it logical when she defended a known pedophile back when she was a lawyer? Was it logical when she was attacking the girls who were inappropriately touched by her husband in the media? Was it logical when she failed to secure our folks in Benghazi despite multiple reports of the area being unsafe?

It's kinda sad that people think Bernie's "promises" (not sure if he's actually used that word) - mainly free tuition and free healthcare - are unrealistic.

It's only unrealistic because no one is willing to do something different.

BUT IT CAN'T BE DONE! ONLY HILLARY CAN WORK WITH CONGRESS BECAUSE REPUBLICANS LOVE HER!

News flash, Hillary's sh*t ain't getting done either with this congress. At least Bernie is getting people interested in politics again and MIGHT just get them to turn out and vote or get them to start the discussion that's otherwise been ignored.

I don't think you understand the job of a lawyer. Nor the fact that her comments were within a private conversation. Or that the Benghazi safety requests were denied at a level below her. Glad you're into politics.

Mike, you need to stop being so hostile.

I've been actively discussing things, thank you very much.

Team Hillary more logically advocates for reducing costs to all students of all institutions, whereas the Team Sanders plan would only be in effect - if greater effect - for public institutions and community colleges.

How does Hillary propose reducing costs for students at private colleges? I don't see how it would work without funding the colleges, which would effectively make them not private anymore.

Aside from the fact that she's gone on record in a debate calling G-S "not ENOUGH," and proposing how she would regulate and prosecute the relevant parties, there are a million more factors in the 2008 and G-S was by no means the most significant part of it. Bernie's been parading it around for a while and O'Malley cosigned it to try to snatch relevance and credibility on the economy, but it's not an end-all-be-all you-must-support-this thing for any Democrat.

From your article:

They argue other factors were more important in causing the 2008 crisis, such as bad mortgage underwriting, poor work by the ratings agencies and a securitization market gone crazy. All of that would have happened no matter the size of the big banks.

Hillary's plan for wall street conveniently omit regulation for rating agencies. So that's 2 critical factors she is unwilling to rectify. I wonder why?.... And now we are supposed to believe that she's going to break up the big banks? Ok sweetie.

I can't speak for retro, but some people believe that lower public schools will force private schools to lower their costs to compete for top students.

As a lawyer, you get to pick and choose your cases. No one forces you to defend anyone. And private conversations are when you see someone's real side. She's the Secretary of State, she knew of the situation. Anyhow, am glad you support someone who doesn't mind defending a pedophile. Anything for money & power I guess.

Anyways since the Hillary stans want everything to remain "civil", let me just say that tomorrow's debate should be interesting. Hillary should perform better in that setting (though she did well tonight aside from a couple of answers - especially that Wall St. answer).

Hillary did not want to take the case, but when obliged to be assigned to it she defended the man as set forth in the US Constitution.
